Because of that, they became colonists. Colonists are people that settle into a new land and form a colony, and that's what they did. They immigrated from Western Europe to the United States to have more freedom, because the government in Great Britain was very strict at that time. Also, there were a lot of pilgrims that wanted to freely practice their religion, but places in Western Europe didn't allow that, so they also immigrated to the United States so they could practice their religion without worrying about things stopping them. They immigrated to the United States, formed their own colony, and became independent from Great Britain.
